Product Details

This pattern was inspired by the stonework diamond patterns found in ruins of an abbey in the Burren (Ireland). The wraps at the meeting points of the traveling cables add to the "squishiness" factor of this cowl. It is worked with 4 strands of laceweight yarn held together, equal to a worsted weight yarn. I switched colours of some of the lace strands with each round repeat of the stitch pattern, creating a subtle ombre look. For a truly luxurious cowl, I used a cashmere yarn. This pattern is great for using up laceweight yarn - a fantastic stash buster!

Skills Required:

* Working with multiple strands of yarn held together
